There's also gdocs. If both authors are collaborators, they can pretty much edit and write the story at the same time without having to worry about the size limit of IMs.

I've done it four ways: some of my joint missions were actually written by one author and then passed over for checking, some were written in real-time over IM programs (line by line, so like passing it back and forth), one was written line by line on a forum set up for the purpose (three authors, so we couldn't get on IM together much), and although not a mission, the early parts of the Reorganisation were split into sections and we each wrote our own parts. And there are other methods - some people seem to just do a commentary on the story together on IM and then write in the action later. So it really does depend. By far the /easiest/ is for one person to do all the writing and the other just to edit; possibly the most fun to write is real-time over IM. But, really, it comes down to choosing your own way.

hS

There must be several ways to do it, but which one is the best?

Is the mission passed back and forth between the writers to allow all characters to react to each situation? Or is it split in sections? Or is the writing mostly done by one person, then sent to the other for verification and perfecting? Or do they each write their own story, then make a salad with the best ideas of both?

Hey, you can join the late club. Bad Tirya_Moonflame! No cookie! The giving out of winged kittens is my job. Nocia, one of my agents, is a winged kitty magnet. The winged kittens were inspired by a Warriors fanfic, thank StarClan it was taken down, where a magical cat from a comet created a clan that lived in a barn and gave every member wings. Wow,I think I need the Bleeprin now. *gets Bleeprin* Sad to say, The Pit of Voles still has some winged cat fics and more Warriorsverse Sues than you can point The Canon Cannon at.

Did I hear that right? A PPCer is asking if they are GOING crazy? PPCers are by definition crazy, and you can't become what you already are.

I'm entirely in agreement with attacking the inventor of essays, but at my school star notes are more commonly assigned and thus I rant about them more. Especially because this is the first year I've had to do them, so they are a newly-discovered evil. Essays have been evil since I first had to wrote one.

Have a very large stuffed red panda and a blueberry pie.

Have a limited edition Crazy agent figurine with real working flamethrower action.

Possibly, but I'm more inclined to want to attack the gent' who created the essay.

If I had permission, I'd join you on that.

Does anyone else here think star notes/Cornell notes were created by Morgoth as a particularly sadistic form of mind-melting torture?

And I am now recalculating. Or rather, I will be recalculating once I chase those damn Tap-Dancing Pineapples from Another Dimension out of my head.

I have Christmas songs on my playlist all year round, though that's more due to laziness than anything else. I'm already planning what I might want to buy people for Christmas though, so if you're insane, you're not the only one.

I have no clue who you are, but have a winged kitten anyway!!! And cookies. Cookies are good.

But it depends what kind of roleplay you're talking about. In recent years, the word "roleplay" seems to have become a catch-all term for many different kinds of geekiness.

I've been looking for a good Harry Potter/ Doctor Who one, or something with OCs and a decent plot.
I've been looking on gaia and roliana, but haven't been having much luck.
I'm somewhat new at this sort of thing, so if anyone has any recommendations......

They do share a universe after all.

Well, I can break out into Christmas songs at any time of year. I wouldn't say it gives me the festive spirit, but I don't think you're totally crazy. Not yet. :D
